HATTIE, THE FEMALE FIREMAN

A correspondent writing from New
Hiyen, Conn, says: There is enc
branch of labor that has never been
invaded by women to any extent
While che, in search Of employment,
becomes a telegraph operator, tickle,
agent, type setter, type writer, clerk,
saleswomah and even newspaper edi-
tor and reporter, it has always been
supposed that she never aspired to be
either an engineer or fireman on q
locomotive. But Bridgeport holds a
woman in the person of Hattie Nor
CANS, who has seen but twenty. three
years, and who has been a stoker in
England and engineer on freight,
engine in Connecticut. She has bright
colored, banged hair, large dark eyes,
and, although her face is weather
beaten, she is quite handsome. She is
rather masculine in appearance and of
a determined expression of character
Her story runs as follows:
About five years ago, while she was
living In London, she fell in love with
Tom Winnan, an engineer on the
"Flying Scotchman," an express train
which runs between London and
Edinburgh. She loved him fondly.
and was never happy except when he
was near her. She was anxious to be
constantly with him, and it was ar
ranged between them that she should
become his fireman SO she arrayed
herself in a coarse suit OF mems clothes.
and was at once transformed into n
handsome Young fireman. Day after
day she attended to her duties. and the
ponderous engine, No. 1862. with its
seven foot drivers, used to do the mile.
a minute act over the heavy metals
Both she and Tom kent their secret
well, and she and Tom were to he
married
But on one black day Tom was
killed by being run over by a shuntcd
car, and he died in less than an hour
with his head in Hattie's Ian. Tn her
anguish her secret was revealed.
She LEFT England which had mo
more happiness tor her. and came Ia
this country. She had some money
| but it soon dwindled awav and she
found that she must do something So
again Disgusting herself she applled for
II fireman s position on n locomo,ivc
on Connecticut railroad She served
nearly two years acceptably. and has
been given a freight engine.
As she had a seyenty.four milo rim
and twenty seven was the number ri
her engine, it is believed that her run
was ON the New York division of tho
New York, New Haven and Hartford
Railroad She worked very well and
showed her skill when her engine OF
out of repair She was finaliv given
the day express to run. and while
there she killed two men One was

A Husband's Testimony.

My wife was troubled for years with
blotches, moth patches and pimplcs on
her face, which nearly annoyed the life
out OF her. She spent many dollars on
the thousand infsllihle ca cures, with
nothing but injurious effects. A lady
friend, of Syracuse, N. Y, who had had
similar experience and had been cured
with Hop Bitters, induced her to try it.
One bottle has male her face as smooth
fair and soft as a child's and given her
such health that 1t seems almost mira.

Mansfield Had TWO Weeks Notice.
From, the New York Tribune.


Richard Mansfield has perhaps gained
much Of his reputation as an actor from his
careful attention to detail For instance, Mr.
Mansfield is q man not above the medium
height, and yet it has frequently been re-
marked by those who have never seen him
on the stage, that Prince Karl" must be
quite tall. II am glad to hear that, said he
the other day, when an observation of this
nature was repeated to him, 'for try to act
tall. What do ] meant I'll tell you.
Haven't you ever noticed that tall men
carry themselves in an entirely different
manner to short men9 Well, it is so, can
assure you. There are tricks of gesture, etc. =,
common to all men above the ordinary
height, and others common to those below
it. An actor, if he is observant, can easily
copy these, and l maintain that one can act
tail, or Short or Stout or SLIM just as
easily as one can mimic Frenchman or a
I German when playing a character part"
Mr.. Mansfeld's interlocutor praised his
skill in the limitations which he INTRODUCES
into Prince Karl" "Oh, any, one can do
those,n said Mansfield; j'.I Nonly wonder
when hear people praise them. They are
not acting, but only rnimicry, and there is a
long stretch of country between the two /

than do now, but she wonld get very angry

talk turned on acting proper, and Mansfield

into a breathless silence. The question
evidently was, VIII he sit DOWN. Every

An IMPERIAL Lecturer

The Empress Haru-ko of Japan has, as is
well known, greatly interested herself of
late years in the question of dress reform.
Quite recently, writes correspondent of the
Chicago Times, she delivered lecture upon
this subject in Toxic; and seeing that Em-
presses do not often give lectures, the follow
ing translation Of what her majesty said
may be of general interest. 1t should be
promised that sitting etiquette and stand
ing etiquette" are terms that have been
adopted to describe the old and new regrla-
tions for the conduct OF ladies at the court of
the Emperor Muts-Hito:
In ancient times" said tile Empress,
1.-THE dress Of Japanese ladies consisted of an
upper garment or wrapper and a petticoat.
During the reforming reign Of the Emperor
Kotoko, u decree was published prescribing
one hard-and-fast fashion of court costumes
for women. similar decree was issued by
the EmperolNto. Subsequently, under the
Emperor Gensho, ladies were forbidden TO
fold the left sides OF their wrappers over the
right sides. Still later, under the Emperor
Shomu, decree was promulgated through
the empire directing all women TO adopt a
newly devised style OF clothing. This was
70 consist of wrapper and a petticoat.
Some ladies went 80 far as TO wear
two petticoats; but this practice was
speedily put down 10y law. And thus, all
through the middle ages our women in
town as well as in the country, used to wear
a single petticoat, which was scarlet in color.
When dissensions about the succession broke
out in the imperial family and led to the
formation Of rival courts in the North and
South the country became for a long
period the scene Of continuous connections;
and. owing 10 the lamentable circumstances
of the time, our women were at last Obliged
10 content themselves with nothing more
than wrapper After the conclusion of the
troubles they continued, in pursuance Of the
habit that had thus been forced upon them,
to dispense with the petticoat and 10 wear
only wrapper, so that the lower limbs
were partially uncovered
